LOL - Conrail heritage unit?

Well now that is interesting! At least when BNSF works with NS and they have ex-Conrail units it will be right at home. Cool picture and thank you for posting this.

Why didn't they repaint it? They can't be in need of power.

I am not sure if it is true for BNSF, but I know on NS we are in need for 4 axle power. Smaller trains means they can be pulled with smaller locomotives.

Looks like someone knows how to perform a "grade A" patch job!

I assume the built-out windshield, to accommodate a walk-around control stand for bidirectional use, makes this a Pennsylvania-Reading-Seashore Lines original. Nice catch of a unique unit, in several ways, on the point, in great light!

This sure is one odd looking BNSF unit with the new 'BNSF' on the sides. Great Shot!
